The paper applies close-kin mark-recapture to estimate adult mosquito census size and clutch failure probability in Anopheles gambiae, finding high clutch failure and extreme reproductive variance.

This study examines genome evolution in the Pacific acorn barnacle, showing high polymorphism and evidence of positive selection in large populations.

This paper presents a protocol for non-invasively determining the sex of cephalopods using skin swabs and qPCR, applicable to multiple species as early as 3 hours post-hatching.

pg_gpu accelerates population genetics statistics on GPUs, achieving significant speedups over CPU implementations while maintaining accuracy.

The paper analyzes population structure in Culex pipiens using genomic data from a WNV hotspot, finding that ecotypes, Wolbachia infection, and habitat type drive genetic variation.

This study compares population genomes of two sympatric octopus species to examine recent evolutionary divergence and selection patterns.

This paper develops a non-invasive method to genotype cephalopod sex using quantitative PCR, validated across multiple species and sequencing data.

The paper extends the stdpopsim simulation framework to include realistic selection models, enabling studies of selection's impact on genetic variation across species.

The paper uses spatial simulations to detect selective sweeps in Anopheles gambiae and identifies new variants under selection.

This study presents the first chromosome-scale genome of a female California two-spot octopus, revealing a ZO sex chromosome system and demonstrating the ancient origin of the sex chromosome in cephalopods.

The paper presents a high-quality chromosome-scale reference genome for Anopheles funestus, significantly improving continuity and completeness compared to previous assemblies.
